What happens when you put 340 undergraduates in a block of flats? Chaos! It was a regular occurrence for the fire alarm to go off at least once a week usually caused by some monkey on the fourth floor making (or should I say burning) toast at 6.00AM! Why 6.00AM? Who makes toast at 6.00AM? Well the alarm would go, you�d have to remove yourself from the ceiling and trudge across to Chester Rd Library in ya smalls where we�d all be lectured on the seriousness of setting off the alarm. The Geordie housekeeper old woman would repeatedly tell us � av� got yis allll in me book leek�! Eh? What, a hit list? Then, after Bijan (with Z3 & sexy helper Julie) had his say, the housekeeper would go on to tell us that �all the fear enginz in the north east have to come out leek� ��..we�re like �look! It�s 6.20AM��..i wanna sleep now dick head!�

One of the best comedy moments happened when the alarm went off one morning, I got up, trousers on, opened my door to see Big Gay Ben stood outside his room (lived opposite) trying to put the key in his door with a towel around him. �Ummm� thought John �why has he just had a shower at 5.40AM? Anyway, seconds later, Johnnies door opens, as Ben�s towel falls off! You should have seen the confused look on Johnnies face as he closes the door, then reopens it to make sure he�s not having a nightmare!!
